Video import size not correct?

Sep 21, 2021

When I import a video it's showing the original size as something totally different than what it really is. It resizes the 'original size' to what fits in my course.

My intent is to import a video clip at double the size and then reduce it by 50%. This way the video looks sharper, especially if there is text in it. I used to be able to import at double the size, but now Storyline is resizing it and not accurately showing the original size as well.

As a workaround, I doubled the size of my project dimensions, import the video at the original size, and then resize my course by 50%.  

Any ideas? Did Storyline change something?

Hi CK1,

I'm glad that you were able to find a workaround for your design. I've never attempted the process you've described, so I'm unsure of any changes that may have affected this behavior.

We've always recommended that you use videos that do not have to be resized in your project:

Use Images and Videos That Don't Need to Be Resized
